(4) Heat Cure Repair Patch Method (cont.)
(g) Using two aluminum plates larger than patch:
1 Cover one smooth surface of each plate with fabric-backed airfoam, fabric side out.
Foam must cover edges of plate for protection.
2 Tape airfoam in place.
(h) Using a cellophane separator to prevent cement from sticking in the wrong place:
1 Fold cell adjacent to patch and place one prepared plate over repair patch.
2 Place second prepared plate outside of bladder opposite patch.
– CAUTION –
Make sure that cell fold is not clamped between plates. This
would cause a hard permanent crease. Also make sure that the
patch does not move when clamp is tightened.
(i) Center repair iron 2F1-3-25721-1 on plate over repair patch. Secure assembly with a “C”
clamp. Tighten by hand. Check cement flow to determine pressure.
(j) Connect repair iron into 110-volt current and cure repair for two hours.
(k) After curing, unplug repair iron and allow it to cool to touch. Remove “C” clamp. Wet
cellophane to remove it from repair.
– CAUTION –
A p p l y i n g b o t h a n o u t s i d e a n d i n s i d e r e p a i r p a t c h
s i m u l t a neously not recommended.
(l) After outside patch has been cured, apply inside patch using same procedure as above, except
for side of repair patch (see Limitations, paragraph J, (3).
– CAUTION –
For each 10°F drop in temperature from 75°F, add 20 hours
cure time. For example: at 65°F, cure for 92 hours.
(5) Air Cure Repair Patch Method
Follow procedure for heat cure method, except omit repair iron. Cure each patch per air limitations
(minimum 72 hours), undisturbed at 75°F.
K. Accessory Replacement
(1) Obtain a cured repair accessory from cell manufacturer.
(2) Mark location of old accessory. Preserve markings for guide lines to locate new part.
(3) Remove old accessory by gradually loosening an edge with a blunt probe-like instrument.
(4) When a loose edge is created, grasp the accessory by loose edge with pliers and gently peel it off
cell wall. Be careful not to pull cell lap open while peeling accessory off. Pull from blind side of a
cell lap toward the exposed edge.
